The imperial palace is deep, with a total of 99 half-pavilion rooms. Since Empress Yu is a queen, she naturally lives in the central palace. It is magnificent and magnificent, and cannot be gazed upon.The small sedan passed through layers of guards, walked through the high wall and long road, and then stopped outside the gate of the central palace. There were no guards here, only eunuchs and maids of the palace stood there, Ding Qifang ordered the sedan to stop, and went in to announce.

A few years ago during the southern tour, Daiyu was summoned by the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager, and often accompanied her to honor the princess. At that time, she was very young, and she was already very restrained in her movements. Now that she is a few years older, she is more elegant and generous when she pays her respects. .

However, Daiyu thought that she was already married to Yu Heng and established a good relationship between the two families. Today, when she saw Empress Yu who was many years older than Yu Heng for the first time, her cheeks were slightly red and her expression was shy. , Every word, deed, and every move, was extremely cautious, fearing that it would displease Empress Yu.

Because he was born in the middle palace, Emperor Changqing issued an imperial decree when he ascended the throne and became a concubine. Naiyun said that except for the empress who accepted the order of the princess and concubine to bow down, the rest of the concubines could not accept it, even if they were already in power. Ranked as the fourth concubine.Under the empress of this dynasty, there are the four concubines Gui, Shu, De, and Xian. Since the past dynasties, every three festivals and two birthdays and canonization ceremonies have the qualifications to accept the orders of princesses and concubines to pay homage. Who would have thought that Emperor Changqing would make such a decree? Even if the Concubine Virtuous and Concubine Xian, who had already been conferred in the harem, were dissatisfied, there was nothing they could do.

The Supreme Emperor was already very satisfied with Empress Yu, upon hearing this matter, he could only agree and not object.

The empress dowager felt a bit sour in her heart, thinking that when she was the empress, the four concubines could all be ordered by the princess or concubine to pay homage to her. In fact, her name as an empress was only superior to them in terms of status and salary.Empress Yu has become a queen, and she can be so high above the harem, how can she not be envied?But thinking that she was not the biological mother of Emperor Changqing, she dared not do anything to Empress Yu.

At that time, concubines were valued more than concubines, and the empress was virtuous and the prince wise, and they were all impeccable. Except for the family members of Jiaofang in the harem, most officials at home and abroad regarded the palace and the prince as orthodox. They did not have to argue with Emperor Changqing's behavior. From the merits of the dragon, on the contrary, I feel that there are many disputes less, and I have gained countless purity, so I naturally say long live and speak out of my virtue.

As Lin Ruhai's eldest daughter, Daiyu was deeply taught by Jia Min, and she has already engaged in marriage. Like many civil and military officials' wives and daughters, Daiyu supports Emperor Changqing's purpose very much, and respects Empress Yu very much in her heart.

It is said that the good works and the good works, the love between Emperor Changqing and Empress Yu is the gospel of all the women below.

In the city of Chang'an, some officials spoiled their concubines and destroyed their wives. There are still some people in the family of concubines, who still let the concubine take their place. In middle age, she is like an old woman.The wives are timid and fearful, and they are not as powerful as others. They dare not support their daughters and just ignore them.Although the others were angry, it was because the official had a high position and authority, and he had cousins ​​with the Supreme Emperor, so no one dared to intervene in it.When Emperor Changqing came to the throne, Empress Yu felt sorry for his wife. Emperor Changqing showed his feelings towards his confidant. Immediately someone impeached the official, punished the official for taking a concubine as his wife, and rescued his wife from the fire.Afterwards, Empress Yu summoned the lady many times and gave her a nanny to accompany her so that her family would not dare to bully her again.

The Supreme Emperor has always turned a blind eye to this. Some people say that Emperor Changqing and Empress Yu meddle in their own business. As the saying goes, it is difficult for an upright official to break up family affairs. It is really inappropriate for Emperor Changqing and Empress Yu to meddle in that official's family affairs. The treacherous and evil things should not be humiliated by the stick for such a trivial matter.However, Daiyu felt that everything seemed big because of its smallness, and Emperor Changqing and Empress Yu were like this, which was even more respectable. That wife is also a subject of Emperor Changqing, so shouldn't she be protected by the court's laws?

Unlike those people who complained about the official, all the wives and daughters-in-law agreed with this move. Everyone said that women's hearts are needles, but in fact, men's hearts are changeable. Married as a regular wife, who doesn't want a saint couple to make decisions for themselves when the husband favors his concubine and kills his wife in the future?Justice?

Therefore, many people supported Emperor Changqing and Empress Yu, and followed suit one after another, so that Emperor Changqing looked at them differently, and those who favored concubines and killed their wives were afraid that they would end up like that official, and dared not take concubines as wives again.

At this moment, Empress Yu is also quietly looking at the Lin family's Daiyu whom she has heard for a long time. It is really like a beautiful soft jade, elegant and extraordinary, not to mention rare in the world, even a fairy in the sky, I am afraid it will not be as good In case of tolerance, Wei Dao's grandmother often said that it is the blessing of the Yu family and Yu Heng to have this beautiful woman.

With a good wife and mother, the family can continue to prosper for three generations, otherwise, it will undoubtedly fail.

Empress Yu was taught by Mrs. Yu herself since she was a child. Like Mrs. Yu, she understands this truth very well. Although her two uncles feel a little alienated because of Yu Heng, it is because Mrs. Yu hired her personally, and she has never been a prodigal daughter-in-law. , so far the family business is very prosperous.However, she felt very ashamed in her heart, feeling that she failed to see through the responsibilities of a good wife and mother, and never persuaded Emperor Changqing to restrain his edge, thanks to Su Lide Lin Ruhai's advice, Fang persuaded Emperor Changqing to get this opportunity.

Empress Yu didn't know that Emperor Changqing was abolished in the previous life, and later he became Prince Yizhong. Her son also had feuds with the new emperor and caused many troubles. Only she, the crown princess, has always been deeply loved by the emperor and the new emperor. She was loved and respected because of her virtuous character and sincere thoughts, and she was buried with the ceremony of a prince or concubine after her death.

Only Lin Ruhai knew about this matter, and no one else knew it even if they wanted to break their heads.

The current world is completely different from the previous life, and Lin Ruhai will no longer use the memories of the previous life to do things in this life.

When Daiyu came to worship with the national ceremony, Empress Yu hurriedly helped her up, and then sent her to her. She stretched out her hand to hold her, looked at her carefully, and said with a smile: "I have wanted to see you for a long time, but I was born here. You are not allowed to go out of the palace, and you did not come in with Mrs. Jia outside the palace, so you will not be able to see him, and I saw him today, I never thought there would be such a beautiful figure in the world."

Daiyu is already rare and handsome, with a peerless appearance. I have heard such praises for a long time, but Empress Yu is Yu Heng's elder sister. Hearing her words, Xia Fei's cheeks are naturally filled with humility.

The female official Siji next to her, although Empress Yu often rewards Daiyu, is the first time she has seen her today, so she should prepare a gift. Seeing Empress Yu treating each other softly, she knows her heart. The table gift was doubled and presented, but it was two bolts of palace silk, two bolts of palace satin, a pair of gold collars, and a pair of jade rings.

Empress Yu frowned slightly, Daiyu is her sister-in-law and not someone else, isn't this a simple gift?

Soon, her brows opened, like newborn willow leaves, and she smiled and said: "It's not a good thing, keep it for others. There is one thing that suits you very well. I originally said to keep it for you, and I will send it to you another day. You Here it is, here it is for you, you don’t have to pass it through other people’s hands.”

After finishing speaking, he ordered someone to fetch a pair of purple jade bracelets, and personally supported Daiyu's wrists to put them on for her.

Daiyu is a character in the south of the Yangtze River, born with a beautiful spirit, in the eyes of Empress Yu and everyone else, her sleeves slipped off, revealing this section of wrists that are as smooth as jade, as soft as silk, and as transparent as water, making the jade bracelet glisten The radiance is clear and flawless, it is not jade that sets off people, but people give jade a compelling aura.

Empress Yu said in admiration: "It's strange that your breast name is Daiyu. You are indeed a jade-like figure. This jade is only suitable for you to wear, and no one else has this aura. Since you are here today, you will stay in the palace for a few more days. , let's get closer."

Daiyu saw that Empress Yu was about the same age as her mother, with a round face and almond eyes, although she was graceful and luxurious, she was full of kindness, she didn't appear to be superior, making people dare not look at her directly, and she felt less restrained.After hearing Empress Yu's words, Daiyu hurriedly replied with a smile: "Your Majesty loves me so much, I shouldn't resign, but in a few days it will be my elder brother's wedding day, so I really can't stay in the palace for a long time."

She and Zeng Jing had a very good friendship, and she had long been looking forward to welcoming the elder sister-in-law in, so naturally she couldn't be absent on the day her elder brother got married.

Empress Yu thought for a while, then said with a smile: "Oh, I forgot, the good life of Xiao Linqing's family is just around the corner."

Before Daiyu could speak, she continued: "It's okay, there are still a few days before your brother gets married, you stay in the palace, and I will send you back two days before your brother's wedding, and I will reward you Dongxi congratulates your brother on his wedding."

Seeing that Daiyu was hesitant, Empress Yu laughed again: "I heard Heng'er said that you love reading very much because of your parents. If there is any collection of books in the world, there is no more than those in the palace. Those compiled by the court officials Books, you can’t see them outside, don’t you want to have a look? The books that Heng Er copied before are just one or two in a million.”

When Daiyu heard this, her eyes instantly brightened like stars in the sky.

Thinking of Jia Min's wrath, Lin Ruhai was afraid that Lin Ruhai would be blamed if she was not in front of her, and she might be grounded by Jia Min and not allowed to enter the library again. However, the books that Queen Yu spoke of were really tempting, so Daiyu immediately agreed.

Although the act of copying books is very out of the ordinary in today's world, and a lady does not need a talent name, but a virtuous name, but Daiyu is self-confident that she is very talented, and she has been going out with Lin Ruhai since she was a child to fight poetry couplets and compete with others. I really didn't want to give up the alias of Jiangzhu and her actions, so I had to avoid my mother's anger first.It would be even better if he stayed in the palace for a few days and wrote down a few more books for circulation among the people.

Seeing this, Empress Yu couldn't help but smile.

At this age, she often keeps reading books in her spare time, and she is also a well-reader, which is rare. Besides, she adheres to the teachings of her parents and believes that reading can enlighten wisdom, reason, and be a human being, and she will not limit her eyes and mind to one world, so she does not think about it. She thought it was a bad thing for Daiyu to like reading, but in fact she was in favor of girls being able to read and write.

In the past few years of being a queen, she has met countless official family members. Those who have read a lot of books are different from those who have not. Cautious, the latter tends to act unscrupulously without knowing that they have violated the laws of the country, and their words are more rude.Although it is said that people who have read the book have done illegal things, and those who have not read the book also follow the rules, but most of the female relatives are just like what I said before.

Of course, no matter whether she has read the book or not, what Empress Yu likes most is the person with a pure mind. Righteous mind, body, and behavior are far more important than reading or not.If a person who reads uses the skills in the book to do evil, it is better not to read.

The first time Empress Yu saw Daiyu, she knew that this girl was a crystal heart and glass person, and she was upright.

Seeing that Daiyu was willing to stay in the palace for a few days, Empress Yu immediately sent the palace eunuch to inform Jia Min, and took back Daiyu's clothes.

Although she is an empress, Empress Yu's life is actually quite lonely, she rarely sees people outside the palace, and she cannot go out of the palace, and she is unwilling to chat with those concubines, so it is indeed true that Daiyu is with her today One piece of fun.

Jia Min is not worried about Daiyu's entry into the palace. She is the direct sister-in-law of Empress Yu. No one dares to bully the queen's mother and son. She can help the prince to gain a foothold in the court. Empress Yu will naturally not embarrass Daiyu. The only thing that annoys her is that Daiyu is acting in the name of Jiangzhu. Knowing that Daiyu was afraid of being blamed, she agreed.

After packing Daiyu's clothes, dowry and other things, she also prepared a purse and other things for rewards. She had to do this in the palace. Daughter-in-law sends.

Lin Rui waited for the eunuch Gong'e who reported the letter to pick up the clothes to leave, coughed twice, saw Jia Min looking over, and quickly smiled at her.

Lin Rui felt a little guilty, and Daiyu was instigated by herself and her younger brother to do these things.

Jia Min snorted and said dissatisfiedly: "Although Yu'er often goes out and walks, she doesn't go to the market. How does she know that there is a shortage of books outside? What about those books named after Jiangzhu? Why don't you, an older brother? Persuasion?"

Daiyu's current status is very unusual, she is engaged, and she is also Empress Yu's natal family, the girl's talent is often feared by others, she happened to make this incident, if the Yu family find out, how can it be Didn't you say she was incapable of teaching?

It's just that they don't care about these things, but a good girl who imitates those literati, once it is leaked out to let people know, ten mouths can't tell clearly.Compared with literati, Jia Min understands the temperament of those literati better than anyone else. They can tolerate any man's talent above them, but they don't want to admit that their talent is defeated by a young girl.People's hearts are not old, since they are unwilling, they will make troubles, and make up many obscenities to attack their people, ruining their reputation.

Lin Rui stood up and offered Jia Min a bowl of tea himself. After she took a sip, Fang smiled and said, "What is mother worried about? Although these things are not in line with the opinions of the world, they are not big things after all."

Jia Min sighed and expressed his worries.

After Lin Rui listened, he smiled and said: "Could it be that our two families can't protect my sister? Even if there is a storm outside, our family can still protect my sister. My father often said that my sister is very talented, far better than my brother and me. If it weren't for my daughter Her body restricts her future, and her future achievements must be higher than that of my brother and me. Since my father does not restrict my sister, why should we be like ordinary people?"

Seeing the disapproval expression on Jia Min's face, he smiled again, and said, "Sister's actions are due to the common people, and I don't know how many literati are grateful. Mr. Yu knows it and doesn't care. Even if the father is here, I definitely agree with it." No one loves Daiyu more than Lin Ruhai, and no one cares more about Daiyu's nature.

Jia Min turned pale with shock, and lost her voice: "Heng'er already knows?" Would you be dissatisfied with this?

Lin Rui nodded with a smile, and said: "He knows many things about our family, and he has watched his younger sister grow up. My younger sister can hide it from others, but she can't hide it from him. He doesn't care. Why should mother worry? Apart from him, my mother doesn't have to worry about my sister's handwriting being recognized by others. How can my mother not know about my sister's skills? My father and I, my brother's handwriting and my sister's handwriting are all imitated, and she is good at many kinds of calligraphy. If the handwriting is changed, even the ladies from the best families can’t recognize it.”

He also said many good things to comfort Jia Min, but it happened that when Lin Zhi came back from school, he heard Jia Min's worries, so he hurriedly made jokes, and only talked about Daiyu's achievements and the praises of his friends. After persuading Jia Min to temporarily extinguish his anger, he was busy with other things the next day. Lin Rui's marriage was imminent, so Jia Min couldn't take care of Jiang Zhu's matter.

But after empress Yu arranged for Daiyu to live, she really took many books with her.

Empress Yu is in the middle palace, and she is usually very busy, leading the concubines and children to pay respects to the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager, to accept concubines and children's greetings, and to take care of palace affairs. Daiyu is like a treasure, apart from greeting Empress Yu and chatting, she seldom steps out of the room and reads in the room.

Although Empress Yu can't make the decision to read all the books in the palace, but the part she can make the decision is also very much for Daiyu.Daiyu has the talent of photographic memory, and she is determined to memorize a few more books, which will be passed on to others in the future, so she reads very attentively.

Empress Yu was afraid that she might hurt her eyes, so she asked her daughter Princess Yuanxin to take her to the imperial garden to enjoy the scenery.

Princesses only get titles before they get married, but Princess Yuanxin was born in the first place, she was born with ice and snow, and she was born after Emperor Changqing realized that his situation was not good and improved. After conferring the empress and prince, she was formally conferred the title of princess, taking the title of Yuan Xin herself, as a prince.

Daiyu saw that although Princess Yuanxin was young and not tall enough, but she was dignified and rigorous in her actions, she couldn't help but praise from the bottom of her heart. After all, she was taught by Empress Yu, and she showed a royal style everywhere, which made people dare not underestimate her.

What made Daiyu feel kind the most was that Princess Yuanxin looked somewhat similar to Yu Hengyin, but her brows, mouth and nose were much softer, and her skin was more radiant than snow.She was wearing a red tapestry dress, with a string of pearls hanging around her neck, making her look more and more like a small person, delicate and lovely.

After Daiyu saluted, Princess Yuanxin hurriedly helped her up with her own hands, and said in a serious manner: "Our family, please don't be too polite, otherwise, let my little uncle know, and definitely don't bring me anything outside the palace. gone."

After hearing this, Daiyu blushed immediately, and said softly: "I salute the princess, what does it have to do with him?"

Princess Yuan Xin looked at her, blinked her eyes like spring waves, and said with a smile: "Aren't you my little aunt? Little uncle and little aunt are naturally related."

Although Princess Yuanxin is not very old, but she grew up in the palace, and she is influenced by conspiracy and tricks every day. She is by no means innocent and ignorant. She has heard of Daiyu's reputation for a long time. Young and promising, now that she is beautiful and outstanding, like a fairy in a painting, and in the future will be his own aunt, he is naturally very close to her.

Although the imperial garden is in the palace, only the pepper room in the palace usually walks in it. After all, Emperor Changqing is busy with official duties. He summoned his officials before noon. The prince and other princes are not allowed to enter and leave the harem frequently except to greet the Supreme Emperor, Empress Dowager and Empress Yu. .

It was the morning queen, so Daiyu didn't have to worry about running into a foreigner, the guarding eunuch was another matter.

Daiyu and Princess Yuanxin walked slowly along the road. On the way, they met many concubines and concubines who had to bow to Princess Yuanxin. Daiyu didn't have to bow down to see her.There is a preface first, the concubine cannot accept the princess ordering the women's relatives to bow down, and Princess Yuanxin doesn't have to show the concubine the gift.When Emperor Changqing established this rule, he made it clear that which brother or sister had to salute concubine Ji?Therefore, even the princes and daughters who are concubines can only recognize the queen as their mother, even the biological mother does not have to bow down.

Emperor Changqing failed to share the family relationship with his biological mother. After ascending the throne, he was named his lord. He still felt the pain of his life. She had to face the concubines who were staring at her every day but could not express her dissatisfaction. He himself was born to face his brothers After all, those concubines and princes all felt that they could also be empresses and emperors.This idea has not passed with the passage of time, but has become more and more intense, so Emperor Changqing praised the status of the son of the main palace one after another, and did not allow the various battles for the heir apparent before he ascended the throne.

After this decree came down, there was a storm in the front and back palaces.

What are those concubines entering the palace for?Don't they all want to have a son successfully, and then use the son to compete for the throne, so that one day the mother will honor the world?But Emperor Changqing actually set such a rule that they can't call themselves mothers even after they have a son, how can they not be angry?How not to be sad?As a result, many family members of Jiaofang entrusted people to write letters to remonstrate.

What kind of person is Emperor Changqing, how can he allow others to influence his will, and he dealt with several officials related to the pepper room in the harem vigorously, so that the dissatisfaction was calmed down, and he had to accept this will.

Emperor Changqing had an ambition and felt that he was inferior to Emperor Qin and Han Wu, but he wanted to establish an orthodox way and make his name last forever.

Many people said that the harem was connected with the former dynasty, but Emperor Changqing didn't think so. He thought that the former dynasty was the former dynasty, and the harem was his inner house, so he didn't need courtiers to intervene.There was a lot of trouble at that time, and Emperor Changqing only said one sentence, "Since your family is involved in my harem, can I also control your inner house? No matter whether you marry a wife or take a concubine, I can make the decision? Ladies and gentlemen When the family sees the concubine of the father's generation, they have to bow down and salute, and call themselves sons?" This sentence left everyone speechless, they relied on themselves as the head of the family, and no one wanted others to interfere with their wives, concubines and children, nor did they want their children to be willing. Salute to the elder's concubine in a humble manner.

Concubine De was playing in the imperial garden, and when she met Princess Yuanxin and Daiyu, she immediately wanted to turn around and leave, but thinking of Emperor Changqing's love for Princess Yuanxin, she had to hide her reluctance, and stiffened her body to give Yuanxin The princess salutes.Fortunately, the concubines in the harem also have ranks. As one of the four concubines, she only needs blessings as a gift and does not have to kneel and kowtow.Even so, she was very unwilling.

Princess Yuan Xin's eyes flickered, she smiled and said: "Please, Concubine De doesn't need to be polite."

Don't you need to be polite?Don't need to be too polite and wait for her to say this after she salutes?She is already one of the high-ranking four concubines, her status is only below that of the queen, she never expected to be treated like this.Concubine De thought dissatisfied.

When she first became the crown prince's concubine, Concubine De was very happy and elated. When the crown prince of the country became a saint, she would no longer be a concubine who would be bullied by others, but a high-ranking concubine who would be worshiped by the world and could Guangzong Yaozu, maybe he can rely on his son to win the position of empress dowager.Unexpectedly, after Emperor Changqing ascended the throne, the first thing he did to enshrine the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager was to canonize the Empress instead of them.

Concubine De hated deeply, especially Empress Yu, even though these were Emperor Changqing's original intentions and had nothing to do with her.Why can she be the mother of the world, but she is no different from ordinary people's concubines?Originally, it was said that the status of a concubine of the Tian family was higher than that of a princess or concubine. Unexpectedly, these honors were gone, and she couldn't even regard herself as a mother to her son.

What angered Concubine De the most was that even the daughter of an official family didn't have to salute her. Emperor Changqing really put Empress Yu in a very high position!

Even though she was full of displeasure, Concubine De did not dare to show the slightest bit on her face, she could only smile all over her face, and said in a soft voice: "There are rules set by the sage, how can you be rude to the princess? Why is the princess free today? Playing? Why don’t you need to go to school?” The princes are all studying in the study, and the princess also has a husband to teach her homework, so she is busy all the time.

Daiyu's body trembled, she only felt a chilly air coming over her, she was not at all warm and safe in front of Empress Yu.She took a focused look at Concubine De, and immediately saw that she was smiling, very hypocritical.

Princess Yuan Xin smiled slightly and said: "Thank you Concubine De for your concern, I have already asked for leave."

After hearing this, Concubine De's eyes moved slightly, and fell on Daiyu like a glance, and she was suddenly shocked: there is such a person in the world?Fengshen is like a fairy, if she is asked to live in the palace for a long time, where will there be a place for three thousand fans?She was originally a servant of color, and she didn't recognize Daiyu, but when she saw Daiyu's appearance and bearing, she felt a little apprehensive.

Suppressing the turmoil in her heart, Concubine De smiled and said: "Which family's daughter is this? Could it be because of this that the princess asked for leave? I see, she is actually inferior to everyone in our palace."

After hearing these words, Daiyu's eyes darkened, and her anger gradually grew.

Princess Yuan Xin said indifferently: "What did Concubine De say? Miss Lin is very nice, but the queen mother wanted to see Miss Lin, so she summoned her to stay in the palace for a short while. What does Concubine De take Miss Lin to do in our palace? Spread the word What happened? Didn’t the outsiders say that the people in our palace are thinking too much?”

Hearing that the surname was Lin, Concubine De suddenly thought that Yu Heng's wife seemed to be surnamed Lin, she was about the same age as the girl in front of her, she was twelve or thirteen years old, her heart was immediately wide open, although she felt that Princess Yuan Xin's words were extremely offensive, There was a three-point smile on his face, which was a little more sincere than before, and he hurriedly said with a smile: "It's not mine, it turned out to be Miss Lin. When did Miss Lin enter the palace? We don't know, If you know it, you should see it."

As he said, he took off a pair of red gold and silk inlaid red treasure bracelets on his wrists and ordered the maid to pass them to Daiyu, and said with a smile: "The first time we meet, there is nothing to congratulate in a hurry. This is a gift from the Supreme Emperor in the past. The right to see you first."

The rubies on the bracelet are in the shape of crabapple flowers, red as blood, very bright, one can tell it is unusual at a glance, and it has the name bestowed by the Supreme Emperor.But Daiyu didn't want to accept it from her heart. Since she was close to Empress Yu, she naturally didn't like concubines, concubines and concubines.She glanced at Princess Yuan Xin, and when she saw Princess Yuan Xin nodding her head, Fang thanked her and took it, and then asked Gong'e, the personal attendant, to accept it.

Concubine De caught a glimpse of the purple jade bracelet on her wrist when she was picking up the bracelet. After returning to her own palace, she dismissed most of the eunuchs who were not confidants, and then lost her temper.

The confidant lady next to her, Kaori, was puzzled, and while comforting her, she asked what happened.

Concubine De said angrily: "Didn't you see the purple jade bracelet that Miss Lin is wearing? Purple jade is rare in the world, and I pay more tribute to the Holy Majesty. I like purple the most in my life. I have asked the Majesty several times to get it. In her hands!"

Xiang Zhi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty calm down, the Holy Majesty must have intentions for not giving it to Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Concubine De became even more annoyed, and said angrily: "What's the intention? There are records in the Ministry of Rites for the things rewarded by the Holy Majesty, even rewards, and there are rarely such boudoir things. I still don't know, it must be given again." The empress, and then the empress rewarded her sister-in-law! It really makes people wonder what to say, but all good things are thought of as gifts to her sister-in-law who has not entered the family. Pearl is like this, Ziyu is still like this , and don’t even think about how idlers can afford to wear the things in the palace?”

Xiang Zhi secretly sighed, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't say that, if you listen carefully, it's our fault." She was De Fei's personal maid when she was in the boudoir, so she dared to speak out.

Concubine De said displeasedly: "What are you afraid of? There is also the Supreme Emperor!"

Speaking of her background, she is somewhat related to the prince, and should be closer than the queen.She is the most beloved daughter of the cousins ​​of the Supreme Emperor, the daughter of the official who favored concubines and destroyed his wives before, but she is not born of the first wife, but the concubine's own child, so she attaches great importance to things outside her body. Chinese cousin, so she does her own way.

What is the use of the Supreme Emperor?Is it comparable to the life of today's saints?No matter what, the Supreme Emperor is already getting old, and the saint is in his prime, and the Supreme Emperor will always leave. At that time, it will be much easier to settle accounts after autumn!

Thinking of this, Xiangwo hurriedly persuaded Concubine De to explain the severity of it to him in detail.

The more Concubine De heard, the more depressed she became. Lin Ruhai was very powerful, and was deeply trusted by the Emperor Taishang and Emperor Changqing. Even her own father was very afraid of it. She could not offend Empress Yu, nor could she offend Lin Hui.The next day, I heard that the Empress Dowager heard that Daiyu had entered the palace, and she summoned her to meet her. Even the Supreme Emperor met her and praised her a lot. She also rewarded her with a lot of books, and gave Lin Rui an inscription with an imperial pen before she left the palace. In this way, Concubine De dared not act rashly.

The word bestowed by the Supreme Emperor was "a match made in heaven", and it was stamped with the seal of the Supreme Emperor. It was very precious. Jia Min immediately ordered someone to engrave it on the plaque, and hung it in the main hall one day before the wedding. He forgot about the crimson pearl for a while.

Daiyu didn't have time to give away the things she got in the palace, so she was busy helping Jia Min with the affairs, hoping that Jia Min would not remember.The second day after the plaque was hung up was the day for the make-up reminder. The whole Lin family was decorated with lights and festoons, and it was very lively. Lin Rui and the eight young talents who reminded the make-up brought back the dowry given to Zeng Jing by the Zeng family during the drumming and beating .

Although Zeng Jing's dowry was complete and the furniture was safely and securely placed in the new house, when the dowry was displayed, many people said that it was not as grand as Miaoyu's wedding, even Yuanchun's dowry was not as good as hers.

The Lin family had a lot of congratulatory guests today, Lin Ruhai was not in the mansion, and Lin Rui was a newcomer, so Lin Zhi had to be busy.

On the first day, when he was welcoming the officials and guests, he saw Baoyu dismounted from the horse and raised his foot to enter the second gate. He followed Jia Mu and Mrs. Dou Wang into the inner hall, and hurriedly pulled him back to cover the coldness in his eyes. He said with a smile: "Today, there are many good friends from various families. Since the second brother Jia is here, let's go over and meet them for a while, so as not to be fined for drinking!"

Since what happened in Jia's house, Daiyu never entered the Rongguo Mansion, but the two families are in-laws after all, and today is Lin Rui's big day, so there is absolutely no reason to keep Jia Baoyu out, not to mention that the world is forgetful, The original matter is over, if you think about the past, you will be stingy.So Lin Zhi pulled Jia Baoyu to the front hall and sent him to the table of people who had some friendship with the Jia family. On it sat Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun, Wei Ruolan and other princes and grandsons. Among them, Feng Ziying and Jia Baoyu were very good, and Wei Ruolan has already made an engagement with Shi Xiangyun. They are not outsiders, and they all know Baoyu very well.

Baoyu seldom went out, because he didn't like men who talked about things, fame and wealth, but as a child of everyone, he had many good friends, so he didn't feel disgusted when he saw acquaintances.

After saying hello to each other and sitting down, we talked happily.

Seeing this, Lin Zhi smiled slightly, apologized, and went to greet others.

Feng Ziying likes to eat, drink and play with Jia Baoyu the most, and he has a free and unrestrained temperament, so she said with a smile: "Brother Bao, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I still look good. I will hold a banquet in a few days, and you must do me a favor."

Because Baoyu thought about Lin Rui's marriage, there would be five less pure and white daughters in the world, and they would not be allowed to enter with Jia's mother, so he was listless. Hearing this, he said, "What's the fun? I'm so busy at home that I don't have time for a while. However, if there are any good places and good things, I can follow Shixiong to see them."

Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Erlang is playing well. I will invite him to go some other day. Why don't you go?"

Liu Xianglian was originally Baoyu's close friend, young and beautiful, and she wields knives and guns, and has a very chivalrous heart. She has always been Baoyu's favorite, and Qin Zhong is also a good friend. Now that Qin Zhong has passed away, Baoyu naturally wants to see her Liu Xianglian quickly responded with a smile.

Wei Ruolan frowned, and a look of disapproval flashed across his face.

Chen Yejun hurriedly pulled Wei Ruolan to ask about homework, but Fang Wei asked Feng Ziying and Baoyu to see something.

Suddenly, Feng Ziying gave Wei Ruolan a push, and said with a smile: "You have decided to marry Brother Bao's cousin, and you will be real relatives with Brother Bao in the future. Why don't you speak when he comes? You have never been like this before. .”

Baoyu immediately thought of Shi Xiangyun's marriage. Jia's family and Wei's family were family friends, and the two families saw each other very often. Knowing Wei Ruolan's talent, appearance and temperament, they were really a match made in heaven, so he hurriedly smiled at Wei Ruolan and said: " What is Shixiong doing now? I heard that Shixiong does not intend to continue studying hard, but is going to the battlefield?"

Wei Ruolan was older than Baoyu, he smiled lightly and said, "I don't have any talent in reading, besides, my ancestor was born in the army and will be 15 years old next year, so I plan to join the army in northern Xinjiang."

As soon as Baoyu heard the word "congjun", Baoyu immediately frowned, and said: "I don't like those things that fight and kill the most. Be careful that the enemy didn't kill, but hurt your own muscles and bones. We are still young, and we are in the capital. Wouldn't it be good for Li Qing to study quietly? Why did Shixiong go to northern Xinjiang to endure such hardships? I remember that I asked Shixiong to study for a few years before talking about joining the army."

Wei Ruolan shook her head, disapproving and said: "A man with ambitions everywhere, how can he be greedy for life and fear death? Besides, I prefer military life to studying, so I can't wait three to five years later."

Chen Yejun knew Wei Ruolan's temperament, he couldn't tolerate the sand in his eyes the most, and quickly turned away, saying: "It's time to worship the heaven and earth outside, let's go and see the excitement, come back and have a drink."

Fang just covered it up and nothing happened.

Lin Rui was high-spirited, and after finishing the ceremony with Zeng Jing, the banquet started inside, and there were laughter and laughter inside and out. Duwei Ruolan was full of thoughts, and hurried back home after the banquet. Going back to the room, he called Fengnian, the servant whom he sent out, and asked, "How's the inquiry going?"

Feng Nian thought back on the news he had inquired, although it was not unbearable, it was not pleasant at all. He could not help but look at Wei Ruolan, feeling a little sympathetic in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Back to the uncle, I have already inquired clearly."

Seeing his hesitation, Wei Ruolan knew that some of his words were very confidential and could not be heard by others, so she hurriedly ordered everyone to retreat and leave far away, and then opened the doors and windows herself, so that people could not easily eavesdrop. , Fang turned around and said to Fengnian: "If you have anything to say, just say it, I just don't want to be a blind and deaf person who doesn't know everything."

Fengnian sighed, and said in a low voice: "The girl from the Shi family that my wife appointed to the uncle was famous for restraining her father and mother in the early years, and she lived in Rongguo Mansion for many years. Seriously speaking, although Miss Shi is The eldest daughter of the Marquis Bowling's Mansion, in fact, her identity is far away
